A new collection of waking nightmares from an utter master of the short story. Skins are taken off and put on anew. People disappear and their absences change everything. Strange happenings occur during any number of apocalypses. Murder becomes art. Monsters move among us. There are no limits to the imaginative horrors Brian Evenson can wreak upon the minds of his readers.
Juan Villoro is a prolific and celebrated author in Latin America, though, shockingly, THE GUILTY is his first book to be translated into English. And what a revelation! Villoro’s stories are funny, contemporary and not afraid of the darker sides of Mexican culture. While mocking every absurdity in modern life, Villoro cunningly reveals the deep dissatisfaction in Mexico and its inhabitants. Some of the most razor-sharp stories I’ve read in a long time, packed with mariachi singers, illegal migrants and much more.
Perhaps Murakami's most underated novels and my absolute favorite of his works. AFTER DARK presents an interesting set of characters all with their own secrets with only hours (literally) of events. Murakami manages to pack an entire world of mystery into this novel.
Saft weaves a tangled political plot through a wartorn continent, imbuing her frostbitten setting with a haunting sense of danger. Colwick Hall is eerie and forlorn, the perfect setting for the grotesque and mysterious - as well as a dark, gothic romance.
Part Wuthering Heights and part War and Peace, Down Comes the Night is entirely addictive!
